Giant Conjunctival Cyst of the Orbit in a Patient with Previous Enucleation.
Article in Case reports in ophthalmology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Conjunctival cysts of the orbit development are a rare complication in enucleated patients. They result from the entrapment of conjunctival epithelium within the orbit. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 25-year-old man with a history of enucleation for a retinoblastoma of the right eye who presented with difficulty in fitting his eye prothesis. On his past medical records, there was no reference to the placement of any orbital implant at the time of the surgery. Biomicroscopy of the right eye revealed a thickened bulbar conjunctiva, an inferior symblepharon, and a translucid central area with vascularization. Imaging was remarkable for a cystic cavity filling the whole right orbit. Biopsy revealed the diagnosis of a conjunctival cyst, and drainage was performed, alleviating the patient's symptoms. Conclusion: Orbital conjunctival cysts may pose a clinical problem, and treatment modalities include surgical excision, absolute alcohol injection, and trichloroacetic acid injection.
